Despite its simplicity, this model contains all the basic aspects of classical and quantum ratchet dynamics, and may be used also as a starting point of incorporating atom-atom interactions.10 pages, 4 figuresStatistical MechanicsTransporting cold atoms in optical lattices with ratchets: Symmetries and Mechanismstext
